The padel landscape in the Southwest continues to evolve, with a striking alliance between French Padel Shop et Ball Addict, which promises to strengthen the local offering and bring enthusiasts of the discipline even closer together.

Few months ago, the Central Padel from Perpignan took over the reins of the frenchpadelshop.com websiteA development that raised questions: was the historic Pau store, a true institution for players in the region, going to close its doors?

The answer is clear: French Padel Shop Pau remains open, but with a new lease of life. At the helm now, a trio of enthusiasts already well known to players in the South West: Damien, Lisa and Thomas. All three decided to take over the shop with the ambition of making it a real living space for the local padel community.

An extension to Tarbes

This team change is accompanied by another major turning point: the Tarbes store, until then under the sign Ball Addict, now adopts a double identity Padel Shop x Balle Addict. A strategic choice for offer even more proximity, personalized advice and product references to players in the region.

"When people thought it was the end, we saw how important this shop was. We said to ourselves: what if we wrote a new chapter, together?" say the three buyers.

Their objective ? Provide a careful selection of products, offer regular new products, and above all offer a warm welcome where the passion for padel is omnipresentWhether you're a recreational player or a seasoned competitor, everyone will be able to find the right shoe (or pala) for their feet in these renovated shops.
